    £5 million to cut the arms of the 42nd Foot in 1759?

    I think you'll find that to be forty-eight pounds, thirteen shillings and zero pence. "Money was divided into pounds (£ or l in some documents) shillings (s. or /-) and pennies (d.). Thus, 4 pounds, eight shillings and fourpence would be written as £4/8/4d. or £4-8-4d."...
